Human Rights Council adopts 10 Resolutions, including on the Role of the Family.
“Malta, introducing amendment L.45 on behalf of the European Union, said that in different cultural settings various forms of families existed. The amendment did not deny the family and used language from UN-agreed documents. Unfortunately, States were trying to withdraw from previously agreed terminology.”according to OHCHR.

“Saudi Arabia, in an explanation of the vote before vote, said that the amendment defeated the purpose and balance of the resolution and added no value to it.”
“The Council then rejected amendment L.45, by a vote of 19 in favor, 22 against and five abstentions.”
Obviously there are states, like Saudi Arabia, which don't agree with Malta.
